Every artist booked for our shows needs to complete our artist application form, which you can find here.
Our application asks for 1-3 live performance videos, and some basic profile information — we don't consider your touring history, social media presence or other components other than your live video when reviewing applications. We do not review any submissions received via email — you have to submit an application via the link above.
On the application, you’ll be able to select one city you’re interested in performing in. If accepted, you can set up to 5 cities in your Booking Preferences.
Our booking team will aim to review most applications within 8-12 weeks, but this can sometimes take longer depending on availability - we want to make sure everyone gets a fair listen!
What if I've played a show before?
If you’ve played Sofar before, you likely already have a profile. You can request access to the Sofar artist dashboard.
In the dashboard, you can indicate where you’re available to play in your Booking Preferences, and our Booking teams will see your name when they’re curating shows in those cities. You can also update your information in the Edit Profile section of your artist dashboard, to make sure it's still current.
